  • Special Episode: The Cancer Mavericks

    We're doing something a little different today. We want to share an absolutely incredible and important new series we've been working on at OffScrip Media.

    It's called The Cancer Mavericks. The Cancer Mavericks is a serial deep-dive documentary series telling the previously untold story of the people who pushed like hell against a paternalistic medical establishment and an archaic healthcare system to transform the way we survive cancer in America. It's a vast tale of activism and conflict spanning more than nine decades of American history, and we're handing today's show entirely over to sharing episode 1 with you.

    Listen to the first episode here, and then be sure to follow The Cancer Mavericks to hear each new episode as it drops every month between now and December. 

    Rest assured: the doctors will be back with you next Thursday.

    But now, please enjoy "Lasker's War", Episode 1 of The Cancer Mavericks.
